- Prachyanat is a theatre group of Bangladesh founded in 1997. On a wintery day of 1997, a handful of young theatre enthusiasts came to realize that, in order to give shape to some of their common ideas about art -theatre in particular – they should work from a common platform. The result was the commencing of the journey of a new theatre group ‘Prachyanat’ on 21 February 1997 ; named by Selim Al Deen, a legendary dramaturg of Bangladesh. From the very outset, these youthful dreamers wanted this new group not to become just a mere addition in the already crowded theatre scenario of Dhaka. As a result of the tireless efforts of the members of Prachyanat, many of its dreams have now flowered into reality.Apart from producing more than ten full-length plays, all of which have been critically acclaimed and appreciated by theatre lovers at home and abroad, Prachyanat now has as many as eight different programmes in their pocket ─ all of which in one way or the other, keeps alive the passion for artistic creativity of its members and associates. This very young theatre group did not have to wait for long before institutional recognition came its way. Within two years of its existence, Prachyanat was allowed the distinction of being the best theatre group for the year 1999. Awards and other distinctions were quick to follow ─ such as The Best Theatre Group, The Best Play of the Year, The Best Light Design. Besides producing a number of successful plays by some of the foremost professionals of the country, another crowning success of Prachyanat is the establishment of Prachyanat School of Acting and Design in the year 2001. The school, only second of its kind in the country, has successfully run forty 6-month courses while its 41st and 42nd batch are already under way. The most unique attribute this group has is its dynamism and this daringness which induced the group to come up with new areas of activity. The Theatre in the Open, Prachyanat for Children, Theatre–lab Production, Prachyanat Research Cell and the Musical Ensemble ― are all part of the group’s creative approach. Prachyanat’s future plan includes a fully equipped theatre centre that will become a hub of all its theatre activities. (en)
